Extramitochondrial OPA1 and adrenocortical function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We have previously described that silencing of the mitochondrial protein OPA1 enhances mitochondrial 27 Ca2+ signaling and aldosterone production in H295R adrenocortical cells.

Impairment of adrenocortical function associated with increased plasma tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin 6 concentrations in African trypanosomiasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
African sleeping sickness (SS) is a severe, potentially lethal parasitic disease. The treatments of choice are the antiparasitic agents suramin, which is adrenotoxic, and/or melarsoprol. We evaluated the functional integrity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-

Adrenocortical Tumors and Pheochromocytoma/Paraganglioma Initially Mistaken as Neuroblastoma—Experiences From the GPOH-MET Registry

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
In children and adolescents, neuroblastoma (NBL), pheochromocytoma (PCC), and adrenocortical tumors (ACT) can arise from the adrenal gland. It may be difficult to distinguish between these three entities including associated extra-adrenal tumors ...

Tumor DNA Methylation Profiling Is a Robust and Independent Prognostic Marker for Pediatric Patients With Adrenocortical Tumors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Endocrine Society, 2021
Abstract Pediatric adrenocortical tumors (pACTs) display complex genomic background and lack robust prognostic biomarkers. However, pACT methylation profiling was recently associated with patient prognosis. In order to evaluate whether tumor DNA methylation is associated with patient prognosis, we studied a Brazilian cohort of pACT in ...

Adrenocortical tumors associated with the TP53 p.R337H germline mutation can be identified during child-care consultations

open access: yesJornal de Pediatria, 2018
Objective: To evaluate the clinical features associated with adrenocortical hormone overexpression and familial cancer profiling as potential markers for early detection of adrenocortical tumors in children from South and Southeast Brazil.

Heterosexual precocity: rare manifestation of virilizing adrenocortical oncocytoma

open access: yesAnnals of Saudi Medicine, 2013
Adrenocortical oncocytomas are extremely rare, and most of the tumors are benign and nonfunctioning. To our knowledge, only 30 cases have been reported in English published studies, and most patients are 40 to 60 years of age.

Embolization in an adrenocortical carcinoma as palliative therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Background: With an annual incidence of 0.2% of new cases per 100,000 inhabitants, adrenocortical carcinoma is rare. In advanced tumor only palliative treatment modalities are practicable. Because of scarcity of the tumor, standard treatment has not been

Li-Fraumeni syndrome: Adrenal cortical tumor in a newborn followed by a choroid plexus tumor

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2018
Adrenocortical tumors (ACTs) are rare in children, comprising

Silencing mutated β-catenin inhibits cell proliferation and stimulates apoptosis in the adrenocortical cancer cell line H295R [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare and highly aggressive endocrine neoplasm, with limited therapeutic options. Activating β-catenin somatic mutations are found in ACC and have been associated with a poor clinical outcome. In fact, activation of the

Clonal Composition of Human Adrenocortical Neoplasms [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The mechanisms of tumorigenesis of adrenocortical neoplasms are still not understood. Tumor formation may be the result of spontaneous transformation of adrenocortical cells by somatic mutations.
